Hello December! I can’t believe it’s already the last month of the year. If I’m honest it’s my least favourite month, but I’ve got a few nice things planned, including a small winter break, so who knows, I might love December this year.
PS. I still have a few calendars in my Etsy shop.

November is almost over, so time for an illustrated recap of what I wore most a.k.a. my November favourites. The last part of this month has been cold, so I’ve been keeping warm in some new (coat) but mostly old favourites.

I’m proud and happy to have a selection of customized cards and posters at The Broth Bar. If you love organic, healthy and home made food or are looking for local or zero waste products, be sure to visit this beautiful place if you’re ever in Maastricht. Lots of gluten free and vegan options too! Owner Charlotte even persuaded me to have my picture taken. Not an easy task!




Happy Cake Day America! Sometimes you have to celebrate the small things, like cake. I know I will be doing that today 🙂

Thanks to everyone who follows me here! I noticed quite a lot of new follower as well, thank you so much for that! Here is a little bit about me, in a drawing of course. An updated version of an earlier #meetthemaker illustration that I did. Hope you like it!
PS. I still have 20% discount on everything in my Etsy shop. Sale ends tomorrow.
PS2. The book you see is The Alchemist by Paolo Coelho, one of my all time favourites.

Forget black Friday- it’s all about JUST A CARD – INDIE WEEK! A campaign to encourage people to shop independent this year.
This year I didn’t want to participate in a black Friday sale. The whole “madness” around it and the emphasis on just pushing people to consume more and more and more does not appeal to me. We, in the Netherlands, don’t even celebrate Thanksgiving but still over the last few years black Friday sales are EVERYWHERE. Crazy, right? But then I discovered the JUST A CARD – INDIE WEEK. A perfect way to give Holiday season shoppers a nice discount and at the same time support a small business. So from now until November 24th I have 20% discount on everything in my ETSY shop.


This Sunday MadeBySjanne and I will be at the Feel Good Market in Eindhoven. I will be selling my cards, prints and calendars. Sjanne will be selling her eco-friendly hand made product, made from super cute fabrics. Come and say hello if you’re in the neighbourhood.

Today is international student’s day, a celebration of multiculturalism, diversity and cooperation among students across the globe.
Why not celebrate with my student motivation postcard? 😉 Available on Etsy.

This year’s Christmas cards are now available in my Etsy shop. You can buy them separately or pick any 5 for just €5,-
Shipping to countries outside Europe will take several weeks, so be sure to place your order on time.
